Washington, Apr 2: Jim Carrey’s girlfriend Jenny McCarthy is fearing that she might accompany her beau on his doughnut eating spree, while he works towards gaining weight for his new chubby role in ‘Three Stooges’.

Carrey will be playing the role of Curly, and his actress-cum-model girlfriend has confirmed that the comic is preparing to get “in shape” to play the larger-than-life Stooge.

And the ‘Mask’ star has warned his toned girlfriend to be prepared to date a bigger Jim.

"He said, ''You know, I’m going to have to gain 40 to 50 pounds for this role,’" Contactmusic quoted McCarthy as telling news show Access Hollywood.

However, she is thrilled about dating Curly.

"I said, ‘Oh my God! I get to be dating Curly! That is the greatest thing ever,” she said.

However, the only thing that is worrying the actress is that she may join Carrey on his binges.

"I hope I don’t have sympathy weight - he’s going to be eating doughnuts,” she said.

In ‘Three Stooges’, Carrey will be starring alongside Sean Penn and Benicio del Toro. (ANI)
